40% of Malicious URLs Were Found on Good Domains (helpnetsecurity.com)
Help Net Security shared an interesting statistic from the 2019 Webroot Threat Report.
40 percent of malicious URLs were found on good domains. Legitimate websites are frequently compromised to host malicious content.
To protect users, cybersecurity solutions need URL-level visibility or, when unavailable, domain-level metrics, that accurately represent the dangers.
The report also found that while Google was the single most impersonated brand in phishing, 77% of all phishing attacks impersonated financial institutions. (The good news? After 12 months of security awareness training, end users were 70% less likely to fall for phishing attacks.)
And Windows 10 devices were "at least twice as secure as those running Windows 7. Webroot has seen a relatively steady decline in malware on Windows 10 machines for both consumer and business."

But I'm pretty sure a hosts file will protect you from all that...

What's wrong with cats videos?
My guess is Linux is even more secure than Windows 10 by their methodologies. But we will never know because the linked PDF doesn't mention it.
I suppose it is worth pointing out the irony of distributing a document about online security via PDF.
"Devices that use Windows 10 are at least twice as secure as those running Windows 7. Webroot has seen a relatively steady decline in malware on Windows 10 machines for both consumer and business."
Without any specific details about why that might be it's a useless metric.
And I even checked the PDF, that literally is the extent of as much as they talk about the 7 - 10 split. That two sentences is it! "In 2017, 93% of malware was unique" - Now THAT is an interesting tidbit all by itself.
SMB was the vector in the most widespread worm activity which caused the majority of the damage. So that's been addressed but hardly "fixed" in 10.
A lot of the trends they're noticing that seem to point to 10 being "more secure" are more likely IMO to be "Malware writers tend to target low-lying fruit they already can with existing code" rather than "Windows 10 has secure network stacks"
After 12 months of security awareness training, end users are 70 percent less likely to fall for a phishing attempt.
If I'd spent 12 months training users, and only saw a 70% reduction(?), I would not be bragging about my course. I would be revamping my curriculum to figure out where I went wrong.
"First they came for the slanderers and i said nothing."
Kill all the good domains. Then the problem will be reduced by 40%!
Think of the children for fuck's sake!
Some people never learn, it's a big-big problem.
Where I work, they send out fake phishing emails and provide a 'report phish' button in Outlook. Reporting real ones trains the system on what to filter and failing to report fake ones trains I.T. on who needs training.
This seems pretty effective and targeted.

Browsers need URL level visibility. Anything that obscures the URL in the browser should be fixed. Mouse-over should always display what is about to be clicked.
It's WHY wildcarding = false positives + w/ DNS wildcard use & DNS redirect poisoning US DHS issues DNS redirect is HUGE danger (not w/ hosts vs.) https://threatpost.com/gov-war... & ICANN ISSUES SAME WARNING https://tech.slashdot.org/stor...

If the link matches this REGEX, it's almost certainly for a compromised site: /\/wp-(includes|content)\/(images|uploads?|themes|plugins|cache)\//
Whatever claims and advances WordPress makes in the realm of security, it is FAR too easy for people to configure it a way to store malware, and redirections to same. Any "deep linking" to one suspicious at best.
Of course, if a link uses a "shortened URL", its probability of legitimacy is rather low, too.
Interestingly, disabling the "Web Pages over SMTP" capability of the e-mail client and displaying all messages in plain text resulted in 99.999% protection against phishing the femtosecond after the "read all e-mail including encrypted and signed email in plain text" was turned on, and required no training (other than instruction to navigate the 5,000 clicks necessary to disable the dodgy non-plain-text rendering options).
Just saying ...
It never connects to the internet so MS can't fuck it up.
Hosts files do it (faster vs. NoScript parse for script src tags in slow usermode vs. hosts in kernelmode operating BEFORE it can).
* Besides - ALL addons are EASILY detected for (& blocked IF a webmaster wishes) via native browser methods - can't DO that to hosts, period...

Change "Windows 10 are at least twice as secure as those running Windows 7" to "Linux is at least twice as secure as those running Windows 7" and I doubt you would be asking for any specific details. There is no amount of details that would make you change your opinion.
The problem today is people define themselves by what they "hate". And "hate" smothers logic, eliminates compromise, and eliminates common sense. We working diligently to destroy every facet of a civilized society while making it impossible to address the many problems we face today. We don't fix problems we only argue amongst one another and winning the argument is the only goal where the ends justify the means.

Apk is light years ahead of /. noobz in skill, as anonymous they are mostly whipslash (like Assange admits in the 5th Estate film). Apk made that punk look like shit absolutely dominating him as he said he would ban apk. Really? The link in the post I reply to shows otherwise. Hahahahaha!
Taking this a bit further; It underscores why awareness training is really a waste of time at this point. I am not personally involved it it but its one of the services the firm I work at provides to some clients.
There are basically two kinds of computer users at this point. Those who are pretty savvy and won't be easily phished period. The other group is simply untrainable. They will never learn not to be scammed because they are one of the following: stupid (sometimes it really is that simple), proud (being do this to long to lean anything from a CBT attitude / I am to important for this), affected by perverse incentives (sure there is a 99.9% chance this is scam but I am in sales and if I it is a client it might mean a commission for me, if it blows up my computer or gets the company hacked which is way more likely that is other peoples problems).
The fact is at this point there are a lot of phishes that are in fact really good. They are highly targeted, domain fronting is used to make sure no spam filters or firewalls classify the source domain as malicious, it only send malicious content when accessed by they target. The content is tarred to the specific person or organization. Its well researched, includes lots of facts an insider would know but were likely discovered by social media and other opsec leaks. They have borrowed the companies presentation style by cloning press releases etc so it looks like it came from your marketing department. These would fool literally anyone and there is NOTHING you can teach in a click thru awareness program that would allow someone to spot these. Eventually to get something to run at some point they will have hit a OS/mail client/browser generated prompt. However they author will have taken great care to make sure the every aspect of the text they can control on that prompt looks as legit as possible. Even the the point of taking advantage of vulnerabilities in the software around look-a-like unicode characters on certificate orgs end users can't distinguish etc. Oh teach them never to click those pop-up prompts from anything that originated from an external source....ugh good luck with that as soon as HR decides to engage an outside payroll processor or benefits management firm..
Basically you have to have effective technical controls on this one. DLP, EDR software, isolated client networks using tools like ISE to control access to other resources, solid least privilege implementation both on clients and network resources, outbound SSL/TLS proxying (without exception), defenses against lateral movement like unique administrative and support passwords and client isolation on networks. This is the only answer that might save a larger organization for a targeted phishing campaign. In 2019 user training is a wasted effort.

APK stop conversing with yourself.
30% of your employees will fall for Phishing attacks even with training. That is really bad news.
I always like to put in the report that I was pretty sure this phishing email was a test, as it checked almost all the boxes of what to expect from a phishing email.
It's WHY wildcarding = false positives + w/ DNS wildcard use & DNS redirect poisoning US DHS issues DNS redirect is HUGE danger (not w/ hosts hardcoded favorite sites my program does vs.) https://threatpost.com/gov-war... & ICANN ISSUES SAME WARNING https://tech.slashdot.org/stor...
* I beat that WITH SPECIFIC host-domain names (even subdomains) vs. even DGA types like Locky or Necurs etc.:

Soon 4 MacOS (I just got a NEW Mac-Mini to port it there)... apk
You are caught impersonating apk. He says you are doing nothing but lying since he has no MacOS model ready https://it.slashdot.org/commen...
The average restaurant or small business web page (plumbers, etc) are the real garbage on the internet as they get built by a one time contract and then left unattended, not updated, for a decade+.
See subject: APK Hosts File Engine 1.0++ 64-bit for MacOS h t t p : / / a p k . i t - m a t e . c o . u k / A P K H o s t s F i l e E n g i n e F o r M a c O S . z i p
Yields more security/speed/reliability/anonymity vs. any 1 solution (99% of threats use hostnames vs. IP address most firewalls use) more efficiently/FASTER + NATIVELY 4 less!
Vs. "Bolt on 'MoAr' illogic-logic" slowing you hosts speed u up 2 ways: Adblocks + Hardcode fav. sites u spend most time @ vs. competition loaded w/ security bugs (DNS/AntiVir) + overheads slowing u (messagepass 'souled-out' to advertisers easily detected & blocked addons + firewall filtering drivers) & their complexity leads to exploitation!
* ONLY 1 of its kind in GUI 4 MacOS!
(Better vs. Windows model in speed/efficiency)
APK
P.S.=> Protects against ALL known & unknown vulnerabilities. Now supports port filters in hosts. My work is world-class & China copied it because they can't do better. I am God's gift to Slashdot... apk
MacOS model's not done: Stop IMPERSONATING me lying & proof portfilter err's can't happen in my work https://news.slashdot.org/comm...
HILARIOUS u ADMIT u have a /. acct & STALK me by UNIDENTIFIABLE ac https://hardware.slashdot.org/... - YOU have ISSUES, lunatic.
See subject & that's the "best ya got"? It proves You WISH you were ME (as your POOR imitation = the sincerest form of flattery).
Instead of WASTING your life STALKING me by UNIDENTIFIABLE anonymous posts OR IMPERSONATING me (since you WISH you were me)? Make a Wheel https://isc.sans.edu/forums/di... as I have that gives users more speed/security/reliability & anonymity NATIVELY doing more for less vs. ANY single 'solution' out there!
* LASTLY - the ONLY time you start IMPERSONATING me vs. STALKING me by UNIDENTIFIABLE anon posts is WHEN YOU ARE OUT OF "downmodpoints" I can easily NULLIFY by REPOSTING my posts RUNNING YOU DRY of them after you ABUSE them - I must've already, lol!
APK
P.S.=> I know WHY you do it though (out of "butthurt angst", lol): I've BLOWN YOU AWAY so many times under your MANY alter-ego SOCKPUPPET /. accounts FAKENAMES you're out for "revenge" only to have EGG ON YOUR FACE yet again https://tech.slashdot.org/comm... ... apk

Where I work they send out fake phishing emails which include an X-PHISHTEST header, making it trivial to write a filter to bin them automatically.

I give up on debugging. From now on, SIGSEGV is a feature.
My own personal strategy is to never click on any link I get in email.
